Description
IGF-binding proteins prolong the half-life of the IGFs and have been shown to either inhibit or stimulate the growth promoting effects of the IGFs on cell culture. They alter the interaction of IGFs with their cell surface receptors.

Protein Species
Mouse
-
Molecular weight
The recombinant mouse IGFBP6 consists of 224 amino acids and has a predicted molecular mass of 24 kDa. In SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, the apparent molecular mass of rmIGFBP6 is approximately 30 kDa due to glycosylation.
-
Purity
> 92 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
-
Activity
Measured by its ability to inhibit the biological activity of IGFI or IGFII on MCF7 human breast adenocarcinoma cells (Karey, K.P. et al. (1988) Cancer Research 48:4083.). The ED50 for this effect is typically 1-4 μg/ml in the presence of 20 ng/mL mouse IGFII.
